Thanks to every one here for posting these images to share.

History in the making.

If you look for a few seconds at the opening day, the feeling you get can make you cry with happiness.

When was the last time that happened in this illness?!

Go WPI!!!!!!

Podium speeches at Aug 16 dedication, originally linked by omerbasket. No shots of the building.

This is a long video, but stick around (or skip ahead) to about the 60% mark (sorry, I don't see any time code) to see Annette and Andrea Whittemore speak. Andrea at about 85%.

A CFS centered event that begins with a reading of the political and institutional dignitaries in attendance (including a representative from the DHHS - anyone know anything about Dr. Suzanne Sherer [sp?]?)!

I was starting to believe that I'd never see this in my lifetime.
